Habits That Ruin Your Trading Profits Without You Knowing
his week we are bringing Tim Parker back for an insightful, real conversation. A couple of weeks ago, I found myself experiencing a rough patch despite my previous consistency. Through experience comes more tools; however, that does not mean I have mastered all of them. Comparison was a source of the struggles that occurred during my week of rough spots. The habit of comparison can be detrimental in all aspects of life. We are not promised anything in life; therefore, when enduring difficult moments, seek advice. Ask yourself difficult questions and learn to accept your emotions, and determine the truth so you can handle the difficult moments. This conversation with Tim pulled me out of a rough patch broadening my perspective. Listen and learn from this powerful, insightful conversation.
